FAQs

Does this module support Gigabit speeds?

Can I use a standard 110-style punch-down tool?

No, this module is specifically engineered for Krone-style termination tools.

Is the module shielded?

No, this is an unshielded (UTP) module, suitable for standard office and home environments.

What is the minimum back box depth required?

It is recommended to use at least a 27mm deep back box, especially when utilizing a bevelled faceplate.

Can I replace the labels?

Yes, the slide label system allows for quick removal and replacement of identification tags.

Are these modules sold in multi-packs?

The SKU 100-760 is provided as a single unit (1 pc).

Troubleshooting

Connection drops intermittently

Check the cable strain relief; ensure the cable is firmly tied to the integrated tie base to prevent movement at the punch-down point.

Cable fails continuity test

Re-verify the color-coding (T568A/B) and ensure the Krone tool fully seated the wires into the IDC teeth without damaging the insulation excessively.

Module loose in faceplate

Ensure the module 'clicks' into the faceplate chassis completely; check for any plastic burs or obstructions in the faceplate opening.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ultra-compact footprint fits shallow back boxes (27mm with bevelled plate)
  • Durable shuttered design prevents port contamination
  • Effective strain relief via built-in tie bases
  • Professional labeling system for easier maintenance

Cons

  • Requires Krone-style impact tools for installation
  • Standard width layout may be too tight for non-Excel proprietary faceplates
  • Single-piece per pack format requires bulk ordering for large projects

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install this module, strip the Cat5e cable jacket to expose the twisted pairs and seat them into the IDC blocks according to the color-coded guide provided on the module. Use a standard Krone-type impact tool to punch down the wires until they are securely seated and the excess is trimmed.

Compatibility: This module is designed to fit standard Euro-style faceplates. When paired with a bevelled faceplate, the module can fit into back boxes as shallow as 27mm. For maintenance, ensure the shutter mechanism remains free of debris. Use compressed air if dust accumulates within the port, and avoid using liquid cleaners or conductive materials near the IDC blocks.
